Charging

This is an example of the ACS protocol in action for charging.

Abbreviations

• RX is received by Unit from Charger
• RX-i is received by Unit from Charger on interface channel
• TX is transmit to Charger from Unit

CONNECT:

The connect response may have an additional parameter called ‘caps’ which is short for capabilities. Ionization controllers (ie. Helix, Echo, Prisma) will have ‘ionization’ as a value for ‘caps’.

AcsService RX:: ACS,hello,CHARGER
AcsService TX[360]:: ACS,welcome,ccu,ver=KOR,remoteok=1,power=EL,caps=ionization
